"I needed to have the gas valve for kitchen stove replaced. Felix had his brother come over that afternoon. He called the company who was going to install the new stove to ensure he put the correct valve in. Excellent service."

"I am very happy with the entire experience. Jose was excellent in assessing the job (replacing a water heater and installing a recirculation pump), coordinating the process and completing the work. He was well informed about relevant building codes. He was very easy to work with, polite and professional. His cost was very fair and his work was excellent. I will use Smart Choice again and I recommend them with no reservations."

"Super knowledgeable! We have had problems with our tankless water heater for years and always just dealt with it but recently it failed and we had no hot water. My wife called Noritz, the tankless manufacturer, and they referred us to The Water Heater Company. They only charged us $49 to diagnose the problem and we found out that the unit was never installed correctly, to begin with. We had them fix the bad installation of the recirculating pump and do maintenance on the tankless itself. The price was very reasonable and I am very happy to have found a company that really knows what they are doing. We have dealt with a lot of plumbers over the years and have never had someone in our home that was as transparent and knowledgeable. If you want your water heating system fixed correctly, call these guys. - Babo"

"The job was done quickly. The plumber installed a new garbage disposal, fixed the sink faucet issue another plumber said was unfixable, and repaired a toilet. He was polite, efficient and cleaned up after himself thoroughly."

"Out four estimates, Seaside gave us the best one. We Spoke with Michael and I would say that he sent two of the best guys, ever, Nathan and Ian, out to install the new furnace and hauled away the old. Answered every question we had in a manner we understood. They went above and beyond. I always believed in using local talent and these guys are Oscar talent! Thank you Seaside for an awesome experience. You made the best part of our day! Jake and Susan D."

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.

One common reason a sump pump stops working is improper sizing. Different locations need different sizes and power ratings of sump pumps depending on the typical amount of water the pump needs to manage. If your sump pump is too small for the quantity of water, it can overwork and either burn out or reduce the life of the unit. If the pump is too big, it can overwork and burn out early. 

Sump pump repairs are typically handled by plumbers or waterproofing specialists who are experienced in handling basement and foundation-related issues. Plumbers can address issues like clogs, electrical problems, and mechanical failures, and waterproofing professionals may be ideal if the sump pump is part of a larger drainage or waterproofing system. 

Some people may also call on a general handyperson for minor sump pump repairs. However, for complex problems, hiring a certified plumber or waterproofing expert ensures the work is done correctly and prevents further issues.

Submersible and pedestal sump pumps are two popular types of sump pumps. Submersible models are covered by water in a sump pit, which helps keep the motor cooler and quieter. Pedestal sump pumps stick out of the sump pit, so the motor stays dry and is easier to access. Submersible sump pumps are the pricier option, but they also have longer life spans.

Several indicators suggest it's time for a sump pump replacement. A key factor is age; if the pump is over 10 years old, its lifespan is likely ending. Performance issues are also clear signs, such as the pump running constantly, cycling on and off frequently, making unusual noises or vibrations, or failing to function at all. A faulty or burnt-out motor is another definite sign a replacement is needed. Additionally, if you notice any signs of incorrect installation, the pump should be replaced. For a definitive diagnosis, a vetted plumber can assess the pump and confirm whether a replacement is necessary.
